Bonneville Joint School District No. 93
MEMBERSHIP
The Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 is governed by a Board of Trustees
consisting of five (5) members, each member to be a representative of a different
trustee zone. The Board’s powers and duties include the broad authority to adopt and
enforce all necessary policies for the management and government of the public
schools. Except as otherwise provided by law, Trustees shall hold office for terms of
four (4) years, until January 1 of the year in which the Trustee’s term expires.
When a change in the boundaries of a duly elected Trustee’s zone causes them to no
longer reside in the zone they were elected to serve, the Trustee shall be allowed to
remain in office for the remainder of their term. This shall not apply to a Trustee who
resides at a different address from the one they resided at when the election took place.
In such cases and in cases where the Trustee was appointed to represent a zone they
no longer reside within, a vacancy shall be declared as described in Policy 1140.
All Trustees shall participate on an equal basis with other members in all business of
the Board. Official action by Board members must occur at a duly called and legally
conducted meeting. A meeting of the Board means convening to make a decision or to
deliberate toward a decision on any matter.
School board members, as individuals, have no authority over school affairs, except as
provided by law or as authorized by the Board.
